Home Heating Oil - Advantages & Benefits
OILHEAT ADVANTAGES:
Oil heat is the safest, most efficient means to heat a home or business. Fuel oil is a very stable, combustible, non-explosive product, which addresses some of the safety concerns that surround other fuels. The efficiency is a result of the high BTU content found in a gallon of oil, versus an equal measure of natural gas, propane, or electricity.
THE BENEFITS OF OILHEAT:
Efficient – modern Oilheat systems perform at 85-95% efficiency or higher. This means that for every dollar you spend on heating oil 85-95 cents worth of heat and hot water is delivered to your home. Oilheat is the efficiency leader.
Clean – Today’s Oilheat is 95% cleaner than it was in 1970. Modern Oilheat systems create absolutely no soot, dirt, or odors in the home. It is as environmentally friendly as gas.
More Popular – 28.6 million Americans depend on the comfort and savings of Oil heat to heat their homes.
It's Abundant – No need to worry about world oil supplies. With over 36 oil-producing countries, Lykins Oil maintains a constant supply of heating oil.
Safe – heating oil is non-explosive, in fact it will not even burn in a liquid state. Not like other heating sources, which will burst into flames.
Cozy and Warmer – an Oilheat flame burns 300 degrees hotter than natural gas, heating your home and water faster than any other heating source ever could.
Economical – annual heating costs for Oilheat are consistently lower than natural gas or electricity, especially if your heating supplier offers a price cap or guaranteed price program. The Department of Ecology studies indicate that oil heats 16% more efficiently than natural gas.
